Additional Information to Know

What if my ID doesn't match my voter registration?

The voting law in Texas is your name from your voter registration must be "substantially similar" to your Texas Voter ID:

• Small differences: As log as the first AND last name are mostly correct, with only a small difference such as a missing or extra letter, they will let you vote. 
• Big differences: If the first name is wrong or the last name if different (e.g. Smith-Walker vs Walker), you will need to either:
• re-register to vote with your correct name, or
• submit a change of name a Texas Secretary of State Name & Address Change site. 

Coronavirus/COVID-19

• You are not required to wear a mask in order to vote, but we highly recommend you do.
• Election poll workers also are not required to wear a mask, gloves, face shield, etc.. If you go to a polling location where this is the case and you are uncomfortable voting there:  El Paso county uses countywide vote centers so you may vote at any polling location in the county. To find a different voting location::
• Go to:  Countywide Vote Centers
• If you wear a mask and the Election Judge asks you to pull down your face mask, you may decide for yourself depending on conditions if you want to comply or refuse. If you refuse, they must still allow you to vote provisionally and then cure it afterward.
